background
The municipality of Choc is little more than a suburb of the capital Castries. In the north of the capital, at the end of the airstrip runway, you can reach the district of Vide Bouteille with a few small industrial companies and larger supermarkets with almost no visible demarcation. This is followed by the Sunny Acres district, a purely residential area. Between Sunny Acres and the Choc River lies the district of the same name, which leads to the superordinate community name.
